AD: Bombardier

AD NUMBER: 2003-08-12
MANUFACTURER:
Bombardier
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2003-08-12
SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604) series airplanes. This action requires a detailed inspection to detect cracks of the vane brackets of the inboard flap actuator beam, and follow-on repetitive detailed inspections or corrective actions, as applicable. This action also provides for two optional terminating actions for the detailed inspection(s). This action is necessary to detect and correct gaps between the flap vane bracket and the adjacent lower skin and between the flap vane bracket and vane actuator beam of the wing flap systems, and premature cracking of the flap vane brackets, which could result in failure of the flap vane bracket(s) when the flaps are extended and the flap vane is aerodynamically loaded. Loss or warping of the flap vane in flight could decrease the lift on one side of the airplane, which could lead to reduced controllability ofthe airplane. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
